Oh, the times they aren’t a-changing! So much rumination rolling around in the back of my mind. I really need to get my mind off the parlous times and my precarious position and think about other things for awhile.

Well, let’s see; I’m going to spend Monday morning fetching some satellite t.v. dishes a fellow is donating to me for a project-I want to see if I can build a cellphone/wi-fi reception enhancer, based on some designs I found at the Instructables DIY site. That’ll take about two hours, as the fellow lives almost an hour away from me. Unfortunately, my cellphone doesn’t sport an external antenna jack, and my laptop uses an internal wi-fi card, so I can’t really move forward on the project until I can afford to get another cellphone and a USB wi-fi adaptor. At least I can start calculating the FP of the parabolic dish, and work on the mounting armatures; eventually I plan on being able to mount and orient the dish on my van, so when I go traveling I can pull in signal in remote locations (hopefully!).

And I’ll spend some time taking pictures of the gear I’m going to try to sell. For ease of operation, I’m going to offer the stuff first on local Craigslist, and if I don’t get a sale there, I’ll have to resort to eBay. We’ll see.

I suppose I’ll spend today as I have most of the recent Sundays, making a nice meal, and some meals for the week to come, and watch some old movies and surf the interwebs and read and write. At least I can do all of that without spending money.

Cheers to a happy day for all!
